how much louder is the HKSSSQ BOV compared to a P-Flow and Forge DV setup?
Is the sound difference very significant? thanks..

it's a totally different sound, and it is a noticeable diff.
I only have a forge btw.

I have had both the ECS kit and a Forge DV with a BMC CDA. The HKS BOV is a LOT louder than the DV & intake combo.

thanks guys
a ECS Kit and a P-Flow would be even louder correct? since the stock airbox is not muffling the sound of anything?
Also how smooth is the HKSSQBOV compared to the forge DV?
With my upsolute chip, after i installed the forge, i noticed a smoother acceleration, will it be the same with the BOV?

I've driven Tom's AWD APR-chipped GTI with K03 and stock airbox, and later w/K04 and BMC. BOV on it the whole time.
It's just as driveable, smooth, and quick as my car w/EVO and Forge.
The BOV is a bunch louder.

So will a BOV with a PFlow be louder upon spool-up than just the stock airbox and BOV, correct?

You'll still be blowing off the same amount of Turbo Exhaust so the P-Flo won't make it louder.
But either way dump that P-Flow.
